For everyone who pointed out that Within Temtation isn’t in fact a Finnish band we apologize for the misunderstanding! We will make sure to do a much more detailed research before we publish anything! Thank you for pointing it out, because only with your feedback we can learn and grow to give you better content in the future! We appreciate every single one of you watching, supporting and being active in the comments and our social media pages! Much love Kintiy and Brian ❤️
For me, just typing Within Temptation to Google first thing I read is that they are dutch. So ... you don't have to dig that deep to find that info. Anyway, I really like your videos and will continue watching any "React to finnish..." you make.
Hey, shit happens. Even to the best ones... At the same time a couple of recommendations: Disco Ensemble, Apulanta, Kotiteollisuus, Stamina, Don Johnson Big Band, CMX, PMMP, Don Huonot, Cleaning Women, Mokoma, Kolmas nainen, The Crash, and Eppu normaali. Unfortunately, most of these bands do not exist anymore. Still, they are all part of Finnish music.
You should listen Raskasta joulua-Tulkoon joulu. It's collaboration band with various artists and they perform christmas carols! Ps. You have to listen the whole song because the artists perform in turns!
Sorry to be a Debbie Downer, but Within Temptation isn't a Finnish band, they are actually from The Netherlands, but the song you listened to was featured by Tarja Turunen, a Finnish singer😅
christuu_dd it was probably requested because of Tarja being there, we apologize for the mix up, definitely not making this mistake again! We make mistakes and learn from them so in the future you guys receive better content! Thank you so much for pointing this out! Have a blessed day 🙏🏻

OH MY LORD! THEY'RE FINNISH!? That makes me so happy to hear 😆 Sadly they mainly perform covers so it could get too messy for me to feature them but wow! You blew my mind 😄
Cheek is 36 so you actually nailed it! :D Few weeks ago Cheek actually song his last consert "valot sammuu" witch means "the lights go out". Feels weird becouse he has been around 1998-2018 Cheek is now coaching a new rap singer Lucas Leon. If you want to react to him, you should listen to Lucas Leon - xtc
The Apocalyptica song is a cooperation with singers from HIM and Rasmus. The thing with Apocalyptica is that they play metal on classical instruments. I think they mostly do Metalica covers. Check out a live performance of Enter Sand Man where you really get to see their skills.
Should also add that while Bittersweet is certainly a calm and pretty song, they can also sound really heavy and dark. Turns out the cello is a pretty versatile instrument, it can sound either ethereally beatiful or downright evil.
Watching you just brings a smile on my face. You are really great analyser and you react really well on different style of music. Please keep doing these videos!
Within Temptation isin't finnish band. Great band, but sadly not finnish. :) I'd love to see you listen Apulanta, they have many great songs but my all time favourite is called Jumala. :) So pls if you ever make reactions to finnish music part 4, i highly recommend that.
I'm not from Finland myself, however I love the country (shout out to all Mika Häkkinen and Kimi Räikkönen fans^^). As a metalhead you have to admire the Finnish old school death metal scene. Purtenance, Demigod, Demilich, Adramelech and Convulse are amazing bands. Nice that you reviewed Amorphis; great band. Another extreme metal band is Rotten Sound (grindcore), then there are the very popular folk metal bands (Korpiklaani, Finntroll, Turisas, Ensiferum). If you want mainstream rock, then check out HIM.
Bittersweet feat Ville and Lauri is one of my all-time favourite tracks. I love Apocalyptica and am crazy about Ville Valo ex-HIM. 💙🇫🇮 The Bee by Amorphis, what an amazing song! Tomis growls are the best I've ever heard and his clean vocals are so beautiful. If you do anymore Finnish reactions please do Death of a king or Wrong Direction by the same band. And more HIM please 💙🇫🇮 Gone with the sin, Our diabolical rapture (live 98), Join me in death, Right here in my arms, Your sweet six six six, Passion's killing floor, For you, Sleepwalking past hope (live Digital Versitale Doom)...and so many more to choose from.
Apocalypypticas name comes from metallica, they started as a band playing metallica by four cellos. And the singers were from him (VilleValo) and The Rasmus (Lauri Ylönen)
If you ever have a chance to see amorphis in concert, I really would suggest you doing it. They are so amazing, they sound so clean and almost just like the album. They have an amazing music quality. Just flawless.
I absolutely loved this video! Made me smile. Amorphis is one of my favourite bands and I live in South Africa! I'm surprised no one has mentioned Wolfheart. Absolutely incredible metal band. I think you would have fun with them too :)
The Finnish choice of alcoholic beverages is Lonkero, a Finnish invention from the 50's. It's a mix of gin and grape juice, has 5,5% alcohol. Also, two bands you need to include in next video: Reckless Love - Hot & Santa Cruz - We Are The Ones to Fall!
You getting emotional of Chasing Highs got me emotional as well. You know when it's real. I'm so happy of you making this series and hopefully you'll never stop! And I'm sure you know about HIM. You should listen to "Olet mun kaikuluotain" by Ville Valo (the singer of HIM). I really like him singing in Finnish although we are used to hear him singing in English. Love from Finland!
I would recommend Turmion Kätilöt. They just dropped a new album too. They have a few songs in english as well but to be honest the best ones have always been in finnish. Maybe you could try one of the new singles off the recent album, called "Sikiö" :)
I love your videos! I'm from Finland and it warms my heart the most how nicely you talk about our music and our artists. It feels to me that your reactions are sincere and you really do enjoy these songs. It means so much! I'm proud of our artists and personally think that Finns have a great talent in making music. So, I'm hoping new reaction videos! You should listen artist called Ellinoora, she has an amazing voice and is a new singer-songwriter. Very talented young woman with mind blowing exponent.
I love watching these reaction videos! You’re so sweet 😝 Few songs that I recommend for you to react: Teräsbetoni - Taivas lyö tulta Korpiklaani - Vodka / Ievan polkka Beast in Black - Blind and Frozen Sonata Arctica - Fullmoon
This kid whose rap you liked is the most successfull rapper in Finland. He aswell had his career’s ending gig only few weeks back in hos home town, where I live. He is huge here man. In Finland in general. Everyone from 10-year-olds to 50-year-olds know who Cheek is! ❤️
Finnish music is actually very popular in Europe (i also hope that in the whole world) - plus there's soooo many kinds of this music it's just amazing. And i know plenty of songs that i didn't even suspect to be from Finland :D congrats and love from Poland 😁💕🇫🇮🇵🇱 ps. Apocalyptica with Lauri.... Nothing left to say.
As a Finn I didn't know ALMA was Finnish music😂 I was insanely surprised to learn that these songs I thought were obviously American because of the production were indeed from Finland.
CMX! This band is great, melodic and poetic. Amazing voice. Try maybe song Ruoste. Another great band is The 69 Eyes with their song Hevioso. Goth, vampire rock. And if you really want to have your mind blown then listen to Korpiklaani : Ievan polkka. You will be headbanging like never before! And last but not least - Happoradio. Amazing rock band and their song Hirsipuu.
CMX and The 69 Eyes do deserve to be spotloghted though if I'd get to choose I'd pick dofferent songs. Maybe Melankolia for CMX due to the hilariously bad music video and Wages of Sin for 69E because it's simply their best song.
I seriously hope you get to listen to Apulanta (Pahempi toistaan, Koneeseen kadonnut) and PMMP (Heliumpallo, Pikkuveli) soon, they are really awesome! Great video as always tho, I appericiate everyone who gives finnish music a go!
Don't think Finns really count as Vikings. Vikings were mostly from Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Iceland if I remember correctly. Vikings were all over the place at that time so they may have had some impact on Finland. I feel though that Finnish culture is very macho so I get your point though. Also these vids are so much fun! :) Looking forward to next vid about Sweden. Where Tove Lo is from.
There's a viking village near where I live in Finland. I thought the same thing until I read some book that said how the towns near the seas were like hotspots for Vikings - but yeah Finns aren't like labeled as vikings as like the Norwegians are.
Finns have about 1/4 of Viking blood. And some Finns went with the Vikings' (t)rading journeys - parties, yoo-hoo! And some Vikingarna settled in Finland, before the Swedish kingdom conquered Finland. Or the Western Finnish lands, separating the Eastern Karelians from us Finns, with the Russians' ready assistance. And the Swedes have mixed with the Finns. Though tht Viking blood is mixed with the inheritance the Eastern Karelians as well, some of who have never belonged to Finland. So, yeah, Finns were not Vikings - and no, they partly were. We partly are. It's not a very simple question - some families have a lot of Viking blood, some have maybe none. So we Finns are... Half-Vikings? Maybe the famous Viking called Halfinn was Half-Finn?
Going way back, Finns are of uralic descent. Whereas Swedes, Danes and Norweigians are descendants of Norsemen (which would become what you call Vikings). Finns ought to be more close related genetically and culturally to Magyars (Hungarians), Estonians and Karelians than they are to Norsemen. Of course, with that said, you have to take into account the fact that they were ruled for a long period of time by the Kingdom of Sweden. Nontheless, saying that Finns were vikings would be like saying that Scots were vikings...
This is a nice idea, as I get brand new ideas for music I possibly never found on my own, and some are surprisingly good. Good that you have some metal stuff too. The comic of this is that I am Norwegian and live in Norway, but you are living on the opposite side of the planet who finds this good music!
You absolutely need to make another one of these! There are so many good singers and bands here. And Alma really was going for the American scene with her songs (especially Chasing highs) and she is very close friends with Mø and Charlie XCX. Here's some suggestions for the next video: Some with english lyrics: Stratovarius - Hunting high and low (Power metal) Steve 'n' Seagulls - Thunderstruck (Cover band, Bluegrass) The 69 Eyes - Lost boys (Goth, Sleaze rock) Nick-E Maggz - Who I am (Hip-Hop, Rap) And some with finnish lyrics: Avain - Roihuvuori (Pop, Hip-Hop) Gettomasa, Toinen poski - Lössi (Toinen poski remix) (Hip-Hop, Rap) DJ RZY ft. Various artists - Tervetuloo Helsinkiin (VA: Cheek, Mikael Gabriel, Elastinen, Stig, Spekti, Uniikki, Juno, Tasis, Timo Pieni Huijaus, Davo. Appearing in that order. Includes some of the biggest names in finnish rap scene. And is also a remix of BOMFUNK MC - Freestyler) (Hip-Hop, rap, pop)
Please react to: Apulanta - Ravistettava ennen käyttöä SANNI - Me ei olla enää me Robin - Frontside Ollie Jenni Vartiainen - Minä sinua vaan And of course: ZoneVD - Rubert Räppi Edit: And Eino ja Aapeli - Mä voisin olla se
Here's a strong HEAVY METAL recommendation for you to listen! Both of these are pioneers of Finnish progressive / thrash metal, and sing in Finnish! Mokoma - "Kesytä perkeleet" or "Sinne missä aamu sarastaa" Stam1na - "Enkelinmurskain" Bonus: IKINÄ - "Turbounelmii" This band caught me by surprise, they're from the same label as the two previous bands and have a really unique sound, at least for the finnish metal music market. Keep making these great reactions, greetings from Finland! 😎✌️🔥
Pls do more of these! And songs I deeply recommend are Nightwish - While your lips are still red, Tehosekoitin - Hetken tie on kevyt or Maailma on sun, Kwan - Tainted Love or Shine, Apulanta - Aggressio or Pahempi toistaan or Jumala, Happoradio - Che Guevara, Ellinoora - Carrie and Vesala - Tequila.
I would love to see you react more to Finnish female vocalists. Chisu (Sabotage), Jenni Vartiainen (Missä muruseni on), Laura Närhi (Hetken tie on kevyt) would be good ones to start. :)
Another great video 👍 Here are some suggestions if you make a part 2 of Swedish music: Sabaton - To hell and back Hammerfall - Hearts on fire Von Benzo - I'm on my way Ebba Grön - Die Mauer Bonafide - Fill your head with rock Raubtier - Låt napalmen regna Have a great day!
If you want some more Finnish "metal" music, new and old, I recommend Tarot, Viikate, The Hurriganes and especially Sonata Arctica & Northern Kings, where's a singer from Sonata, guitar & singer from Nightwish and Tarot and few others Finnish bands. They're singing mostly 80's hits and is basically synfonic metal with strong voiced male singer.
Tove Lo is a Swedish singer and in fact works a lot with ALMA. ALMA also does a lot of work with Charli XCX and recently wrote a couple songs with/for Miley Cyrus. She is pretty much the biggest export Finland has right now musically.
Dear Brian, thank you so much for these very enjoyable videos - and as a Finn myself I am very happy to see that you enjoy the music our country has to offer. The singer with the deeper voice in the Apocalyptica video/song is Ville Valo from HIM (which you will also probably enjoy). Since you are into metal, if you happen to travel to Finland think about visiting Tuska metal music festival in Helsinki, I am quite sure you would love it.
You should react to these finnish songs: Mikael Gabriel - Älä herätä mua unesta, Sturm und Drang - Million nights, Isac Elliot - Rich and Famous, One Desire - Hurt, Evelina - Tornado
Ensiferum (viking/folk metal) - Tumman virran taa, It's a very short song (less than a minute) but it's lovely in its simplicity, strong and a little eerie. I always feel like I'm hearing the song deep in my chest.
Cheek's Timantit ovat ikuisia (Diamonds are forever) -- you nearly nailed the pronouciation -- is a song full of references to James Bond movie titles right from the get-go. Up till the point you listened to at least the following titles, in addition to the song title, are mentioned: Goldfinger (kultaa sormes' > Kultasormi), Dr. No, Casino Royale, The Living Daylights (Vaaran vyöhykkeellä), Die Another Day (Kuolema saa odottaa), Tomorrow Never Dies (Huominen ei koskaan kuole), and Skyfall. In addition the pre chorus line has James Bond mentioned right in the beginning: "My mother asks me do I think I'm James Bond. I respond I don't know but we have something in common." Also included references include drinking Martinis, driving Aston Martinis, wearing bowties, etc. As I recall, later in the song at least The World is not Enough will be mentioned.
These are some newer finnish songs if you want to check them out in the future: Alma- Phases or Karma Cledos ft. Deezydavid- Töis Jvg- Kruunu tikittää Kasmir ft. Saara- Vauvoja Spekti- Juna Herrat- Kumiankka Much love from Finland
Cheek is the biggest rapper in Finland. He just quit his career for a couple of weeks ago. For example, he had two gigs at the Finnish Olympic Stadium in a row. Both sold out. No other Finn has played at the stadium. In additiqon to this sold out was not even able to Michael Jackson or Madonna.
Omg, I'm so happy that finally you got to hear Amorphis - one of my faves. :3 Anyways, I also reccomend Turmion Kätilöt, Viikate and Kotiteollisuus. Very fun music videos :D
I was not aware of Amorphis - The Bee, thanks for bringing it on my radar. Also, Apocalyptica is one of those bands that usually lets the song build up little by little, so listening only the beginning parts may be quite different from the ending. If you are up for more, Apocalyptica's "I don't care" (ft. Adam Gontier) and "Not strong enough" (ft. Brent Smith) are quite good collaboration pieces too (and "Life Burns" features that the Rasmus singer you seem to like). And then for some more heavyish suggestions... Timo Rautiainen & Trio Niskalaukaus - Lumessakahlaajat Turmion Kätilöt - Teurastaja (or "Dance Panique" for a hilarious music video) Apulanta - Jumala Kotiteollisuus - Tämän taivaan alla Sonata Arctica - Tallulah It is rather interesting to learn how local music sounds to other cultures, good job with showcasing that a bit (plus the attempts of pronouncing Finnish words make me smirk).
I remember when that Apocalyptica song came out and I loved that contrast of their voice, like you said. :) this was a unique collaboration between the greatest Finnish musicians. :D
Nightwish: Phantom of the opera Sonata arctica: Full Moon Stratovarius: Black Diamond Straight up legends of Finnish music For the giggles. Children of Bodom: Oops I did it again (britney spears troll song)
lol literally this morning I wrote an analysis on the intertextual references in the lyrics of Timantit on ikuisia so it's funny you happened to review it
If you're doing another episode, you should listen: -Antti Tuisku: Keinutaan -Alelsanteri Hakaniemi: Luuseri -Sanni: Jacuzzi -Jenni Vartiainen: Made in Heaven -Cheeck: Valot sammuu (he ended his career with this song) -Benjamin: Naarmuja
Apocslyptica's Bitter sweet is sang by Lauri Ylönen from the Rasmus and Ville Valo from HIM. I recommend you to listen my favourite song from Apocalyptica: I don't care
Hey! Just thought that if you like metal/heavy/rock types of genres, and if you haven't yet checked these out, I really recommend these: 1. H.I.M - Right here in my arms or Join me in death 2. The 69 Eyes - Dance D'Amour 3. For My Pain as a band, since they don't have any music videos, there's f.e a few guys from Nightwish 4. Reckless love - The night is on fire Your reactions are really priceless! Keep on doing these in the future too~ also have you ever thought of reacting to Norwegian, Swedish, Chinese, Japanese or Korean music? Cause all those would be interesting, I just found your channel, so I don't know if you already did some of those!
Just going to recommend a new American metal core band for you since you mentioned having trouble finding good American metal. They're called My Immortal Enemy. They just put out their debut album a few weeks ago. I only just found this channel and I am hooked on these videos. I'm a huge metal fan and I love Finnish metal and rock.
even tho you don't listen that much of a rap, here's a couple of underrated finnish rap songs that are definitely worth of listening: View - Trippin' Sober Biniyam - Royal Beggar Noah Kin - 822 Gracias - Night Shift (DJ Kridlokk remix) hope this message reaches you. :)
Great content as always! Really hope you'll make another reaction to Swedish music! I would love a reaction to HammerFall, Europe, Wasted Penguinz, Snook and maybe throw in something like Rolandz, Lasse Stefanz or Sven Ingvars. ;)
Actually Cheek ended his career like an month ago or so. He's the most succesful artist in here Finland, he had some huge concerts, but he never went internationally!
Alma 😍😍 I’d recommend: Happoradio ~ Puhu äänellä jonka kuulen Jenni Vartiainen ~ Väärään suuntaan Ellinoora ~ Funeral song (orginally from the Rasmus 😉)
You have to put one song from the original Nightwish to your next one of you are going to do it. I'm surprised you haven't in four videos since they are one of the most successful bands internationally we've had (someone correct me if I'm wrong) and when they had Turunen as lead singer they were UNIQUE... Good job on the good videos!
I was disappointed that I didn't see the Nightwish. Within Temptation is such an amazing band, but if you are talking about finnish symphonic metal then there is only one band!
No it isn't. Floor is amazing and versatile singer. Maybe Tarja had an nice operatic voice, but after the time it sounded the same on every song. Floor can do vocally more than Tarja
For everyone who pointed out that Within Temtation isn’t in fact a Finnish band we apologize for the misunderstanding! We will make sure to do a much more detailed research before we publish anything! Thank you for pointing it out, because only with your feedback we can learn and grow to give you better content in the future!

For me, just typing Within Temptation to Google first thing I read is that they are dutch. So ... you don't have to dig that deep to find that info.
Anyway, I really like your videos and will continue watching any "React to finnish..." you make.
There was a Finnish singer featured in the video (Tarja Turunen), so I kinda understand why it was recommended.
Where's Redrama??!
Hey, shit happens. Even to the best ones... At the same time a couple of recommendations: Disco Ensemble, Apulanta, Kotiteollisuus, Stamina, Don Johnson Big Band, CMX, PMMP, Don Huonot, Cleaning Women, Mokoma, Kolmas nainen, The Crash, and Eppu normaali. Unfortunately, most of these bands do not exist anymore. Still, they are all part of Finnish music.
lol ouch! I still like you.
Apocalyptica is spesial becouse they play only cellos.. and this song had feat. by Ville Valo from HIM and Lauri Ylönen from The Rasmus
*special *because
Was just gonna say, pretty sure that's Ville Valo :P
Whats funny is that he heard Ville, and thought it was the singer from the Rasmus, then Lauri comes in 2 seconds later :p
Minna Mikkonen I’m so surprised that he didn’t listen to HIM because, well, it’s HIM
Aka the 2 singers from the 2 biggest finnish bands
You should listen Raskasta joulua-Tulkoon joulu. It's collaboration band with various artists and they perform christmas carols!
Ps. You have to listen the whole song because the artists perform in turns!
THIS! Raskasta joulua is like the who is who of the Finnish metal men
Also Northern Kings :)
th-cam.com/video/xKwQKqQ8MMY/w-d-xo.html
Yea raskasta joulua is band that you can hear it all the time in my house😊😅
Sorry to be a Debbie Downer, but Within Temptation isn't a Finnish band, they are actually from The Netherlands, but the song you listened to was featured by Tarja Turunen, a Finnish singer😅
I'm over here like "Who the F* mistakes Within Temptation for a Finnish band?!" :D
Yea, should at the least check on wikipedia that the bands are Finnish. Tarja Turunen must be the reason though, as christuu_dd said.
christuu_dd it was probably requested because of Tarja being there, we apologize for the mix up, definitely not making this mistake again! We make mistakes and learn from them so in the future you guys receive better content! Thank you so much for pointing this out! Have a blessed day 🙏🏻
what was the song by Tarja he was reviewing.
@@dnanything it was Paradise by Within Temptation featuring Tarja
No one's saying that the title says FINISH Music?
Let's not finish music, please.
Why our music is best😉
Veeti Tuomaala Finish=/=Finnish
Karinara didn’t notice that lol
Veeti Tuomaala Siis jos et ole vielä ymmärtänyt, siinä missä Finnish tarkoittaa suomalaista, Finish tarkoittaa lopettamista. Joten pyysin, ettei musiikkia lopeteta :)
no voi voi mikä vika vittu
I absolutely loved your reaction for ALMA. She is our diamond! I think that most of the Finns don't realize how BIG she is outside Finland.
typical pop trash
Timo rautiainen- lumessakahlaajat
Apulanta- pahempi toistaan ( pls the version with the longer intro it's so much better)
Turmion kätilöt- teurastaja
Haloo helsinki!- maailma on tehty meitä varten
Sunrise avenue- fairytale gone bad
Happoradio- che guevara
Zen café- piha ilman sadettajaa
Egotrippi- matkustaja
Stig- roy orbison
Antti ketonen- olisitpa sylissäni
Jenni vartiainen- ihmisten edessä
Cheek- liekeissä
Especially zen cafe. There were so many Finnish tracks.
Hell yea lisää
@STORMER mistä lähtien? Ne laulaa suomeksi ja niiltä on paljon klassikoita.
Apulanta - Trauma, might work best visually for non-finnish person from Apulanta songs.
Yessss
Some more suggestions:
Eppu Normaali - Vuonna '85 (alternatively try "Tahroja Paperilla", "Tahdon Sut" or "Rannalla Vihreän Joen")
Yö - Rakkautta Vain
Happoradio - Tavikset
Dingo - Levoton Tuhkimo
Zen Cafe - Mies Jonka Ympäriltä Tuolit Viedään
Teflon Brothers - Maradona
Tai Eppujen "Kun kitara soi"... kuulostaa ihan Dire Straitsilta... en tiedä onko plussaa vai miinusta...
HIM - right here in my arms (HIM’s singer Ville Valo has been chosen the world’s best metal rock singer many times)
I'd love you to react to Steve'n'Seagulls.
You're a genius
Yes!! Great band!!!
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!
OH MY LORD! THEY'RE FINNISH!? That makes me so happy to hear 😆 Sadly they mainly perform covers so it could get too messy for me to feature them but wow! You blew my mind 😄
Steve'n'Seagulls blow that dude to Finland :D
Cheek is 36 so you actually nailed it! :D Few weeks ago Cheek actually song his last consert "valot sammuu" witch means "the lights go out". Feels weird becouse he has been around 1998-2018
Cheek is now coaching a new rap singer Lucas Leon. If you want to react to him, you should listen to Lucas Leon - xtc
Nina Nurmi omg säki täällä
Noita tarkoittaa😂😂
The Apocalyptica song is a cooperation with singers from HIM and Rasmus. The thing with Apocalyptica is that they play metal on classical instruments. I think they mostly do Metalica covers. Check out a live performance of Enter Sand Man where you really get to see their skills.
They started with Metallica covers, but that is like 20 years ago. They have been making their own music since their third album.
Should also add that while Bittersweet is certainly a calm and pretty song, they can also sound really heavy and dark. Turns out the cello is a pretty versatile instrument, it can sound either ethereally beatiful or downright evil.
Apocalyptica - The Unforgiven at Wacken! Such a great performance.
1:41 noo that's Ville valo, the vocalist for HIM (His infernal majesty)
Both were on the video
@@Angrymuumi1 But he commented BEFORE Lauri sang a word☝️☝️☝️☝️
Aye GET HIM ON THE VIDEOS OR ELSE AND DO THY RESEARCH PAL!
Lmao i'm finnish and i never knew that "HIM" was an acronym
Him doesn't mean his infernal majesty. It doesn't mean anything
Watching you just brings a smile on my face. You are really great analyser and you react really well on different style of music. Please keep doing these videos!
Within Temptation isin't finnish band. Great band, but sadly not finnish. :)
I'd love to see you listen Apulanta, they have many great songs but my all time favourite is called Jumala. :) So pls if you ever make reactions to finnish music part 4, i highly recommend that.
I think he should listen Mitä Kuuluu by Apulanta.
Or Pahempi Toistaan
Or Palava pensas
Isn't
No Sonata Arctica again? sad(
yeah where is Stratovarius and Sonata Arctica amigo?
Stratovarius and song called Eagleheart.
Kilpi and song called nerokasta ikävää..
you have to listen HIM! ville valo is the best😍😍
I SECOND THIS. He is rated 8th in singers with most vocal range. He beats Freddie Mercury
I'm not from Finland myself, however I love the country (shout out to all Mika Häkkinen and Kimi Räikkönen fans^^). As a metalhead you have to admire the Finnish old school death metal scene. Purtenance, Demigod, Demilich, Adramelech and Convulse are amazing bands. Nice that you reviewed Amorphis; great band. Another extreme metal band is Rotten Sound (grindcore), then there are the very popular folk metal bands (Korpiklaani, Finntroll, Turisas, Ensiferum). If you want mainstream rock, then check out HIM.
🙏🌷🩵🌷🙏
Bittersweet feat Ville and Lauri is one of my all-time favourite tracks. I love Apocalyptica and am crazy about Ville Valo ex-HIM. 💙🇫🇮
The Bee by Amorphis, what an amazing song! Tomis growls are the best I've ever heard and his clean vocals are so beautiful. If you do anymore Finnish reactions please do Death of a king or Wrong Direction by the same band. And more HIM please 💙🇫🇮 Gone with the sin, Our diabolical rapture (live 98), Join me in death, Right here in my arms, Your sweet six six six, Passion's killing floor, For you, Sleepwalking past hope (live Digital Versitale Doom)...and so many more to choose from.
Definitely want you to listen to:
Apulanta
Chidren of Bodom
Isac Elliot
Antti Tuisku
Sanni
Uniklubi
Reckless Love
Von Hertzen Brothers
Uniklubi yes please!!
I would take out isac e, antti t and sanni and replace those with stamina :)
I would add Negative
Apocalypypticas name comes from metallica, they started as a band playing metallica by four cellos. And the singers were from him (VilleValo) and The Rasmus (Lauri Ylönen)
4:55 That pronunciation was pretty much spot on. I think you've been secretly studying Finnish
If you ever have a chance to see amorphis in concert, I really would suggest you doing it. They are so amazing, they sound so clean and almost just like the album. They have an amazing music quality. Just flawless.
I´m still waiting on Turmion Kätilöt, and you seem like the kind of guy who would actually enjoy Sonata Arctica..
I absolutely loved this video! Made me smile. Amorphis is one of my favourite bands and I live in South Africa! I'm surprised no one has mentioned Wolfheart. Absolutely incredible metal band. I think you would have fun with them too :)
The Finnish choice of alcoholic beverages is Lonkero, a Finnish invention from the 50's. It's a mix of gin and grape juice, has 5,5% alcohol.
Also, two bands you need to include in next video: Reckless Love - Hot & Santa Cruz - We Are The Ones to Fall!
Tiesiks muuten et Olli Herman on mun koulussa opettajana xD
Yes Reckless Love!!
You getting emotional of Chasing Highs got me emotional as well. You know when it's real. I'm so happy of you making this series and hopefully you'll never stop! And I'm sure you know about HIM. You should listen to "Olet mun kaikuluotain" by Ville Valo (the singer of HIM). I really like him singing in Finnish although we are used to hear him singing in English. Love from Finland!
I would recommend Turmion Kätilöt. They just dropped a new album too. They have a few songs in english as well but to be honest the best ones have always been in finnish. Maybe you could try one of the new singles off the recent album, called "Sikiö" :)
I love your videos! I'm from Finland and it warms my heart the most how nicely you talk about our music and our artists. It feels to me that your reactions are sincere and you really do enjoy these songs. It means so much! I'm proud of our artists and personally think that Finns have a great talent in making music. So, I'm hoping new reaction videos! You should listen artist called Ellinoora, she has an amazing voice and is a new singer-songwriter. Very talented young woman with mind blowing exponent.
you need to listen to Stam1na!
Amen to that Stam1na brother!
any song goes but better listen them all
Stam1na - lääke
I love watching these reaction videos! You’re so sweet 😝
Few songs that I recommend for you to react:
Teräsbetoni - Taivas lyö tulta
Korpiklaani - Vodka / Ievan polkka
Beast in Black - Blind and Frozen
Sonata Arctica - Fullmoon
This kid whose rap you liked is the most successfull rapper in Finland. He aswell had his career’s ending gig only few weeks back in hos home town, where I live. He is huge here man. In Finland in general. Everyone from 10-year-olds to 50-year-olds know who Cheek is! ❤️
Finnish music is actually very popular in Europe (i also hope that in the whole world) - plus there's soooo many kinds of this music it's just amazing.
And i know plenty of songs that i didn't even suspect to be from Finland :D congrats and love from Poland 😁💕🇫🇮🇵🇱 ps. Apocalyptica with Lauri.... Nothing left to say.
Egotrippi: Matkustaja
As a Finn I didn't know ALMA was Finnish music😂 I was insanely surprised to learn that these songs I thought were obviously American because of the production were indeed from Finland.
CMX! This band is great, melodic and poetic. Amazing voice. Try maybe song Ruoste.
Another great band is The 69 Eyes with their song Hevioso. Goth, vampire rock.
And if you really want to have your mind blown then listen to Korpiklaani : Ievan polkka. You will be headbanging like never before!
And last but not least - Happoradio. Amazing rock band and their song Hirsipuu.
CMX and The 69 Eyes do deserve to be spotloghted though if I'd get to choose I'd pick dofferent songs. Maybe Melankolia for CMX due to the hilariously bad music video and Wages of Sin for 69E because it's simply their best song.
Joanna Nowicka Cmx - Melankolia
I seriously hope you get to listen to Apulanta (Pahempi toistaan, Koneeseen kadonnut) and PMMP (Heliumpallo, Pikkuveli) soon, they are really awesome! Great video as always tho, I appericiate everyone who gives finnish music a go!
Don't think Finns really count as Vikings. Vikings were mostly from Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Iceland if I remember correctly. Vikings were all over the place at that time so they may have had some impact on Finland. I feel though that Finnish culture is very macho so I get your point though.
Also these vids are so much fun! :) Looking forward to next vid about Sweden. Where Tove Lo is from.
There's a viking village near where I live in Finland. I thought the same thing until I read some book that said how the towns near the seas were like hotspots for Vikings - but yeah Finns aren't like labeled as vikings as like the Norwegians are.
I think you should check latest argeological findings regarding vikings and finland...
I think you should like. Botehr to give us link to make learning easier. Cheers.
Finns have about 1/4 of Viking blood. And some Finns went with the Vikings' (t)rading journeys - parties, yoo-hoo!
And some Vikingarna settled in Finland, before the Swedish kingdom conquered Finland. Or the Western Finnish lands, separating the Eastern Karelians from us Finns, with the Russians' ready assistance. And the Swedes have mixed with the Finns. Though tht Viking blood is mixed with the inheritance the Eastern Karelians as well, some of who have never belonged to Finland.
So, yeah, Finns were not Vikings - and no, they partly were. We partly are. It's not a very simple question - some families have a lot of Viking blood, some have maybe none. So we Finns are... Half-Vikings? Maybe the famous Viking called Halfinn was Half-Finn?
Going way back, Finns are of uralic descent. Whereas Swedes, Danes and Norweigians are descendants of Norsemen (which would become what you call Vikings). Finns ought to be more close related genetically and culturally to Magyars (Hungarians), Estonians and Karelians than they are to Norsemen. Of course, with that said, you have to take into account the fact that they were ruled for a long period of time by the Kingdom of Sweden. Nontheless, saying that Finns were vikings would be like saying that Scots were vikings...
This is a nice idea, as I get brand new ideas for music I possibly never found on my own, and some are surprisingly good. Good that you have some metal stuff too. The comic of this is that I am Norwegian and live in Norway, but you are living on the opposite side of the planet who finds this good music!
Alma-Karma
I see that you are a man of culture as well because you like Amorphis. Respect💪
Apulanta is something I think you should hear.
You absolutely need to make another one of these! There are so many good singers and bands here. And Alma really was going for the American scene with her songs (especially Chasing highs) and she is very close friends with Mø and Charlie XCX.
Here's some suggestions for the next video:
Some with english lyrics:
Stratovarius - Hunting high and low
(Power metal)
Steve 'n' Seagulls - Thunderstruck
(Cover band, Bluegrass)
The 69 Eyes - Lost boys
(Goth, Sleaze rock)
Nick-E Maggz - Who I am
(Hip-Hop, Rap)
And some with finnish lyrics:
Avain - Roihuvuori
(Pop, Hip-Hop)
Gettomasa, Toinen poski - Lössi (Toinen poski remix)
(Hip-Hop, Rap)
DJ RZY ft. Various artists - Tervetuloo Helsinkiin (VA: Cheek, Mikael Gabriel, Elastinen, Stig, Spekti, Uniikki, Juno, Tasis, Timo Pieni Huijaus, Davo. Appearing in that order. Includes some of the biggest names in finnish rap scene. And is also a remix of BOMFUNK MC - Freestyler)
(Hip-Hop, rap, pop)
Please react to:
Apulanta - Ravistettava ennen käyttöä
SANNI - Me ei olla enää me
Robin - Frontside Ollie
Jenni Vartiainen - Minä sinua vaan
And of course: ZoneVD - Rubert Räppi
Edit: And Eino ja Aapeli - Mä voisin olla se
Cheek is like big celebrity in
Finland but he doesn't do musik anymore. And "Timantit on ikuisia" means Diamonds are forever
Since when has Within Temptation been a Finnish band?
The song is featured by Tarja Turunen so maybe that's why it was suggested
Here's a strong HEAVY METAL recommendation for you to listen! Both of these are pioneers of Finnish progressive / thrash metal, and sing in Finnish!
Mokoma - "Kesytä perkeleet" or "Sinne missä aamu sarastaa"
Stam1na - "Enkelinmurskain"
Bonus: IKINÄ - "Turbounelmii"
This band caught me by surprise, they're from the same label as the two previous bands and have a really unique sound, at least for the finnish metal music market.
Keep making these great reactions, greetings from Finland! 😎✌️🔥
Pls do more of these! And songs I deeply recommend are Nightwish - While your lips are still red, Tehosekoitin - Hetken tie on kevyt or Maailma on sun, Kwan - Tainted Love or Shine, Apulanta - Aggressio or Pahempi toistaan or Jumala, Happoradio - Che Guevara, Ellinoora - Carrie and Vesala - Tequila.
Defenately check out Nightwish While your lips are still red. The music video is really great and of course the song itself. Just love it. ❤
Wooohooo theres part 3!! My day is saaaadeeed
I would love to see you react more to Finnish female vocalists. Chisu (Sabotage), Jenni Vartiainen (Missä muruseni on), Laura Närhi (Hetken tie on kevyt) would be good ones to start. :)
Speaking of Hetken Tie On Kevyt, some actual Tehosekoitin would be nice.
Don't forget Johanna Kurkela!
OH YES Johanna Kurkela. "A Lifetime Of Adventure" with Tuomas Holopainen is a must-see in my books.
Popeda, Hurriganes,Hanoi Rocks,Rauli Badding Somerjoki,Agents,Elokuu, bands/artists from Finland. You're welcome😊
Cool Makia shirt- that is also Finnish design! You're welcome! Cool channel, keep it up
Within teptation is not finnish, it's Dutch. Tarja Turunen is finnish, but she is not a member of the band, just featurong in that song.
Another great video 👍 Here are some suggestions if you make a part 2 of Swedish music:
Sabaton - To hell and back
Hammerfall - Hearts on fire
Von Benzo - I'm on my way
Ebba Grön - Die Mauer
Bonafide - Fill your head with rock
Raubtier - Låt napalmen regna
Have a great day!
For the next Finnish metal reaction:
Beast in Black - Blind and frozen
Insomnium - While we sleep
Yeah beast in black blind and frozen is the shit! 💖
Yeah👌 and battle beast- black ninja
I think the fift angel is better than blind and frozen.
While the Insomnium - While we sleep is one of the best songs ever come from Finland and im not even huge Imsomnium fan.
suvi Beast in black - born again
If you want some more Finnish "metal" music, new and old, I recommend Tarot, Viikate, The Hurriganes and especially Sonata Arctica & Northern Kings, where's a singer from Sonata, guitar & singer from Nightwish and Tarot and few others Finnish bands. They're singing mostly 80's hits and is basically synfonic metal with strong voiced male singer.
We all are humans and we make mistakes, but you can easily fix this.
React to Nightwish song ;)
Tove Lo is a Swedish singer and in fact works a lot with ALMA. ALMA also does a lot of work with Charli XCX and recently wrote a couple songs with/for Miley Cyrus. She is pretty much the biggest export Finland has right now musically.
Alma - Bonfire or Karma 👌🏼
7:35 "I really like this kid's style" he is 36 years old and already retired his career, at least for now :D
and i'm still waiting for that Norwegian music reaction lol, i hope to see Enslaved-Ethica Odini on that list (:
Dear Brian, thank you so much for these very enjoyable videos - and as a Finn myself I am very happy to see that you enjoy the music our country has to offer. The singer with the deeper voice in the Apocalyptica video/song is Ville Valo from HIM (which you will also probably enjoy). Since you are into metal, if you happen to travel to Finland think about visiting Tuska metal music festival in Helsinki, I am quite sure you would love it.
Apocalyptica feat. Corey Taylor
React!
Love that song!
Apocalyptica feat. Sandra Nasic from Guano Apes song called path
You mean I'm not Jesus? That song is soo good
I love the your pronunciation with letter R 😍
You should react to these finnish songs: Mikael Gabriel - Älä herätä mua unesta, Sturm und Drang - Million nights, Isac Elliot - Rich and Famous, One Desire - Hurt, Evelina - Tornado
Ensiferum (viking/folk metal) - Tumman virran taa, It's a very short song (less than a minute) but it's lovely in its simplicity, strong and a little eerie. I always feel like I'm hearing the song deep in my chest.
Turmion kätilöt - dance panique, please
Cheek's Timantit ovat ikuisia (Diamonds are forever) -- you nearly nailed the pronouciation -- is a song full of references to James Bond movie titles right from the get-go. Up till the point you listened to at least the following titles, in addition to the song title, are mentioned: Goldfinger (kultaa sormes' > Kultasormi), Dr. No, Casino Royale, The Living Daylights (Vaaran vyöhykkeellä), Die Another Day (Kuolema saa odottaa), Tomorrow Never Dies (Huominen ei koskaan kuole), and Skyfall. In addition the pre chorus line has James Bond mentioned right in the beginning: "My mother asks me do I think I'm James Bond. I respond I don't know but we have something in common." Also included references include drinking Martinis, driving Aston Martinis, wearing bowties, etc. As I recall, later in the song at least The World is not Enough will be mentioned.
You should listen Over the hills and far away by Nightwish
These are some newer finnish songs if you want to check them out in the future:
Alma- Phases or Karma
Cledos ft. Deezydavid- Töis
Jvg- Kruunu tikittää
Kasmir ft. Saara- Vauvoja
Spekti- Juna
Herrat- Kumiankka
Much love from Finland
Cheek is the biggest rapper in Finland. He just quit his career for a couple of weeks ago. For example, he had two gigs at the Finnish Olympic Stadium in a row. Both sold out. No other Finn has played at the stadium. In additiqon to this sold out was not even able to Michael Jackson or Madonna.
Omg, I'm so happy that finally you got to hear Amorphis - one of my faves. :3
Anyways, I also reccomend Turmion Kätilöt, Viikate and Kotiteollisuus. Very fun music videos :D
Bittersweet is epic because Apocalyptica+the Rasmus+ HIM ❤😍👍
I was not aware of Amorphis - The Bee, thanks for bringing it on my radar. Also, Apocalyptica is one of those bands that usually lets the song build up little by little, so listening only the beginning parts may be quite different from the ending.
If you are up for more, Apocalyptica's "I don't care" (ft. Adam Gontier) and "Not strong enough" (ft. Brent Smith) are quite good collaboration pieces too (and "Life Burns" features that the Rasmus singer you seem to like). And then for some more heavyish suggestions...
Timo Rautiainen & Trio Niskalaukaus - Lumessakahlaajat
Turmion Kätilöt - Teurastaja (or "Dance Panique" for a hilarious music video)
Apulanta - Jumala
Kotiteollisuus - Tämän taivaan alla
Sonata Arctica - Tallulah
It is rather interesting to learn how local music sounds to other cultures, good job with showcasing that a bit (plus the attempts of pronouncing Finnish words make me smirk).
Listen next time Jenni Vartiainen. Song Suru On Kunniavieras
Hyi vittu
Please No or next grand-ma asks to review Jari Sillanpää or Olavi Uusivirta later cannot even sing :D Keep humppa and tanko for yourself Finns :D.
listen to Jenni's songs "En tahdo kuolla tänä yönä" and "ihmisten edessä" :)
Duran Duran, Eden, Väärään suuntaan...
I remember when that Apocalyptica song came out and I loved that contrast of their voice, like you said. :) this was a unique collaboration between the greatest Finnish musicians. :D
Alma has risen into great success with only a few singles. :)
The Bee, The Bee, THE BEE!!! The best out rigth now is that latest Amorphis album where this was taken from. :D \o/
Nightwish: Phantom of the opera
Sonata arctica: Full Moon
Stratovarius: Black Diamond
Straight up legends of Finnish music
For the giggles. Children of Bodom: Oops I did it again (britney spears troll song)
In América Latina ''king of heart '' was a hit amigo, in Argentina we love your metal bands
lol literally this morning I wrote an analysis on the intertextual references in the lyrics of Timantit on ikuisia so it's funny you happened to review it
If you're doing another episode, you should listen:
-Antti Tuisku: Keinutaan
-Alelsanteri Hakaniemi: Luuseri
-Sanni: Jacuzzi
-Jenni Vartiainen: Made in Heaven
-Cheeck: Valot sammuu (he ended his career with this song)
-Benjamin: Naarmuja
If you didn't know this song 5:04 .. in the lyric he mentioned about 5-7 different James Bond - movie (007)
Apocslyptica's Bitter sweet is sang by Lauri Ylönen from the Rasmus and Ville Valo from HIM. I recommend you to listen my favourite song from Apocalyptica: I don't care
Suskiitsu YES I Don't Care is AMAZING
Hey! Just thought that if you like metal/heavy/rock types of genres, and if you haven't yet checked these out, I really recommend these:
1. H.I.M - Right here in my arms or Join me in death
2. The 69 Eyes - Dance D'Amour
3. For My Pain as a band, since they don't have any music videos, there's f.e a few guys from Nightwish
4. Reckless love - The night is on fire
Your reactions are really priceless! Keep on doing these in the future too~ also have you ever thought of reacting to Norwegian, Swedish, Chinese, Japanese or Korean music? Cause all those would be interesting, I just found your channel, so I don't know if you already did some of those!
Please react Beast in Black - Blind and Frozen. 🔥🔥🔥
Just going to recommend a new American metal core band for you since you mentioned having trouble finding good American metal. They're called My Immortal Enemy. They just put out their debut album a few weeks ago. I only just found this channel and I am hooked on these videos. I'm a huge metal fan and I love Finnish metal and rock.
Please listen to Amorphis - Silent Waters
or Silver Bride
or house of sleep
Or The White Swan :) or something from the previous singer, for example Alone and Veil of Sin :)
even tho you don't listen that much of a rap, here's a couple of underrated finnish rap songs that are definitely worth of listening:
View - Trippin' Sober
Biniyam - Royal Beggar
Noah Kin - 822
Gracias - Night Shift (DJ Kridlokk remix)
hope this message reaches you. :)
You definitely gotta check out Che Guevara by Happoradio!
Great content as always! Really hope you'll make another reaction to Swedish music! I would love a reaction to HammerFall, Europe, Wasted Penguinz, Snook and maybe throw in something like Rolandz, Lasse Stefanz or Sven Ingvars. ;)
Actually Cheek ended his career like an month ago or so. He's the most succesful artist in here Finland, he had some huge concerts, but he never went internationally!
Cheek is not the most succesful artist from finland. Maybe in the hip hop scene but definetly not the most succesful artist of them all.
HIM is the most successful inside Finland, iirc. Internationally, in terms of album/cd sales, I think it's Nightwish.
Loved this one! GJ!
pls react to Hurriganes Get on or Roadrunner, Delta Enigma All i want is you or Ghost.
Alma 😍😍
I’d recommend:
Happoradio ~ Puhu äänellä jonka kuulen
Jenni Vartiainen ~ Väärään suuntaan
Ellinoora ~ Funeral song (orginally from the Rasmus 😉)
Loved the video :) could you react to nightwish phantom of the opera live, it’s metal :)
Dude, your awesome!! Love from Finland. Lets sauna!!!!!!!!
Turmion Kätilöt - Faster than god.
You know that Amorphis is on tour in the US at the moment? Maybe see them live in West Palm Beach on October 6?
Song for you from Teräsbetoni
th-cam.com/video/IIPsBXWD8hA/w-d-xo.html
You can also have Teräsbetoni- Taivas lyö tulta
You have to put one song from the original Nightwish to your next one of you are going to do it. I'm surprised you haven't in four videos since they are one of the most successful bands internationally we've had (someone correct me if I'm wrong) and when they had Turunen as lead singer they were UNIQUE... Good job on the good videos!
I was disappointed that I didn't see the Nightwish.
Within Temptation is such an amazing band, but if you are talking about finnish symphonic metal then there is only one band!
New Nightwish is crap unfortunately. Without Tarja...
No it isn't.
Floor is amazing and versatile singer.
Maybe Tarja had an nice operatic voice, but after the time it sounded the same on every song.
Floor can do vocally more than Tarja
TrisskyTV I think having a new talented singer just gives Nightwish more variety on what sort of songs they can make.
TrisskyTV Nightwish _was_ crap with Anette as soloist but is amazing again with Floor as soloist! Floor is incredible!
In Apocalyptica song there were some fimilar faces to me :D Ville Valo (HIM) and Lauri Ylönen (The Rasmus).
